WWE, I'm just full-on Paige, my in-ring character. 'Total Divas' is where I can completely be myself and be my lunatic, weird person.
I think the success of 'Total Divas' has opened people's eyes to women in wrestling and to WWE divas.
I think that the potential of Total Divas and female athletes is that the sky is the limit. People want to know about these women, and in the WWE, we call it the Divas Revolution - it's a movement for women's empowerment.
That's what we do in the WWE: we tell stories; we're characters. We go into the ring, and my character is telling a story in the ring against another character.
I got my developmental deal first, and I got 'Total Divas.' Everything from there it just went, boom! I was living my life on reality TV. I had to perform for WWE as well as show that to the whole world.
My dad loved being a part of 'Total Divas' and sharing that special connection that we shared in having the same careers in WWE.
I love the fact that 'Total Divas' reaches a different demographic than the normal fan base or audience that typically watches 'WWE Monday Night Raw' or 'SmackDown.'
This isn't a business that you can pick up in a few weeks. This takes years of commitment, dedication, passion, and hard work. With that is WWE's road schedule that doesn't provide for enough in-ring time for the divas to develop.
I think because of 'Total Divas,' people have gotten to know who we are and kind of see more of the personality of the divas.
When I came into WWE, what I said to myself was, I wanted to change the term from 'divas' to 'women.'
Nicole and I got into wrestling through diva search. It used to be this competition WWE would put on. I found them when I saw the Divas wrestling in the ring, and I kind of just knew it was our calling. I felt like this was exactly what we are meant to do in life. Not only are the girls so glamorous, but they are also very tough.
My biggest concern with the whole deal with 'Total Divas' and with WWE - and, you know, they want you to be engaged with social media and all this kind of stuff - I don't want to live my life to entertain other people.
I think the thing with 'Total Divas' is that everyone truly got to see how different we were, which helped showcase singles careers in WWE, which is something we always wanted.
That is just a part of my personality, being the voice of reasoning, and it is kind of annoying being that person all the time, but pretty much what you see on 'Total Divas' is who we are as individuals.
Something that's interesting with season two of 'Total Divas,' Fandango and I's relationship has been on the surface level, as far as WWE programming with 'Monday Night Raw,' 'Main Event,' 'Friday Night SmackDown.' You see us on camera and that's about it.
The thing is, in the WWE, we have the WWE title, the World title, the United States title, the Intercontinental title, the Divas title, the Tag Team titles. And I feel like, in this business, when Mr. Perfect had that Intercontinental title, that was the belt we saw as the stepping stone to becoming 'the man.' The franchise of the WWE.
When I graduated from Chaparral High School in Scottsdale, I made my way back to San Diego, which is where I was born. And I saw WWE Divas on television, and I thought to myself, 'Oh my goodness, that is our calling.'
